Please briefly describe any previous laboratory experience
I worked for the 2013 summer researching Dictyostelium at Colorado Mesa University using it as a model organism to detect drugs with potential as chemotherapeutics and treating developmental diseases.
Since January 2014, I have been working in the Weiss Lab developing a B-Cell Receptor based biosensor that can detect arbitrary macromolecules. It has potential applications in environmental sensing and rapid disease diagnostics.
- Large nitrile gloves please
- Also I am dyslexic and ordinarily get extended exam time. However I don't see this being an issue because there are no large tests in this class.
